HOG MARKET G0$ HIGHER; GLEN MILLER RECEIPTS ARE LOW

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. Good heavy hogs sold up to $15.25 at Indianapolis last Saturday against a top of $14.85 on Saturday. Jan. 3. Good mixed mediums were also up 35c at $15.35. while choice lights at $15.25 showed no advance, this being also the top on the previous Saturday. Heavies sold at $15.15; mediums at $15.25, and lights at $15.35 last Monday, breaking to $14.60 for heavy, to $14.70 for mediums, and to $14.80 for lights, the three tops on Thursday, the low day of the week. Indianapolis packers absorbed most of the hogs on Saturday and the fact that the supply was limited to 6,500 head sustained prices, In spite of very little demand from, shippers. The demand for cattle was brisk at the weekend and -choice steers sold up to $18. Calves broke, however, as much as $1.50 at the opening on Saturday morn ing, selling down to $19, but the market finally rallied and a few fancy veals brought $20.75. . Heavy calves closed about steady but thin veals were lower at $7 to $8. Choice and prime light weight steers ranged at $16.50 to $17.50; mediums and good, $11.00 to $12.50. and-com mon $8.00 to $10.50. Good, choice and prime lambs sold at from $13.00 to $18.00 as to weight and finish. The top on hogs at Chicago last Monday and for the week, was $15.25. The 80,000 head received In that market on Tuesday put the skids under prices, and the top halted at $14.90; this followed with a top of $.14.60 on Wednesday, when there was a lot of stale hogs In the pens at the opening. This was the low "top" of the week, a gain of 40c to an even $15 being scored last Saturday. GLEN MILLER MARKETS. The past week's receipts at the Glen Miller yards were no doubt cut considerably by the snowed-in condition e the farmers and the often impassable cross roads, except to horse 1 ravel. With better roads this week it is expected that a lot of hogs which have been awaiting the trucks will swell local receipts. With reference to the snow blockade and the falling off in receipts In consequence, especially on Friday and Saturday, Rome Shurley said Monday: "The same conditions existed all over the central west, affecting general receipts, and hogs advanced from 50c to 75c on Friday and Saturday, at all points." "Outside of a few light hogs which, brought $15.25 on account of the tieup the bulk of hogs sold on oir Saturday market at $14 to $14.50," said Mr. Shurley. He further says: "Witli the opening of the roada it is predicted that there are yet too many fat hogs to be marketed to maintain present prices, and with the first liberal receipts a reaction Is due." In his opinion, "hogs bought at $15 stands to lose plenty of money, as there will be no home for this this coming week." Cattle ruled 60c to $1 lower, as to quality, locally, and the receipts of calves were the highest ever noted, with a comparative advance of about $2 during the week, the tops bringing $18, at the Glen. Carlot Hog Costs. The following showing of the cost of 7 cars of live stock shipped last week Is of interest: Ninety-eight hogs, 20,245 pounds, $2,859.65; 67 hogs, 16,660 pounds. $2,355,32; 81 hogs, 16,510 pounds, $2,352.68; double decker, 126 hogs, weight 26,880 pounds, $3,839.44; 89 hogs, weight 17,400 pounds, $2,523; 119 hogs and 11 veals, $4,164.80; 16 cattle, weight 14,370 pounds, $1,500. Roscoe Stanford made the largest delivery of the weak, 81 hog on Tues day, which sold for $14,2I. Goven Duke delivered 20 hogs which averaged 265 pounds and brought $14.25. George Wofel, Roy Parkes, Joe Staas, W. N. Williamson, Thomas Elleman and H. O. Horn were among the shippers who received 14 hi cents for hogs during the week. Some ealeB were made as low as $14.10. Verling Reid's 79 head, averaging 270 pounds bring' ing that price. Among the shippers not listed above were: Harry Osborne, Edward Middaugh, E.. M. White, Dick Deems, John Peterson, Charles Showalter, Ed ward Holleran, J. D. Snedeker, E. A. Petr, Earl Marr, Fred Varnauf, Or ville Thomas, Sam Glunt, John L. Raper, C. E. Belford and Will Hulsinger. Considering weather and road condi tions the receipts made a satisfactory total for the past week. . MORE FOR FLOUR, BARNES' WARNING NEW YORK, Jan. 12. In a circular sent broadcast Sunday, Julius H. Barnes, United States wheat director, warns the country of possible radical price changes when government sta bilization is witndrawn trom grain prices at the end of the coming June. Apparently Mr. Barnes is not quite sure whether wheat will Jump or decline In price, but he seems to be sure that something will happen and he advises all growers and wheat dealers to exercise caution. He calls attention to changing psychology on the part of large sections of the American population pointing to the fact that the grain corporation's pure wheat flour has met with an unexpectedly popular reception which in turn, as he sees it, points the fact that thrift as a national characteristic may become contagious as "extravagance has been." At the same time he attributes recent price advances In some grades of flour to "restricted transportation and extraordinary Indifference to expenditures by a section of our people." The woman suffrage movement has nly, recently made Its appearance in s'acaragua.

The Farm and The Farmer BY WILLIAM R. 8ANB0RN

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. "Short hours, short producdon and Increased wages for city workers, will not' decrease prices was .the sense of a resolution adopted at te Nebraska farmer's congress at pmaha last week. The fanners expressed their willingness to do their full share in helping lower the cost pt living, but want some consideration of their 14hour days and large investments. Apropos of this we are reminded of a recent speech at a,' Preble county farm institute, in whAch the speaker said that he saw no deed for farmers . . . . ' . x, 1 . joining any laoor organization, wimisoever, nor any tenancy on the part of farm bodies in tb at direction. The farmers have duties and responsibilities enough of their own, and besides, he knew of - no labor union that is organised for the general welfare r for the greateM good; all lacking or for the greatest good; all lacking national progress, in a patriotic Bense. PAY AND PROGRES. The farmers association of Greenfield, Ind, beleve that it takes money to make the ijiare go, and that 50 cents per year dus Is not in keeping with the good exacted to be accomplished, nor with tb; e importance of their enterprise. At their December meeting they advanced the dues to $5 annually, ind every member present subscribed, for three years. When 1. is considered that tho labor organizations charge an initiation fee of from $10 to $60, and in some Instances 'erven more, with due running from -per month up, with various special assessments In order as needed, the, 25c and 50c annual dues for membership in some of the farm organizations, farm, institute societies, for example, border on the absurd, if anytblng is to be accomplished In an educational way, except by state aid. This point .was most forcibly brought out toy a speaker at tne tri-coumy mstitiiute, at Boston, on January 2. FEDERATION PUBLICITY. In line with the above note the acticm of the Indiana federation which is ambitious to enroll every farmer in the state, which would be some Job. It Will also take a lot of money, as the officials realize. But they are tackMug the Job with right good will and re now printing a line of posters and hand bills, setting forth the need for the organization, the benefits to ac crue, and illustrating the losses farm ers have suffered for lacK or organiza tion, also what farm organizations have done in other states, in a telegram to the American farm bureau at Washington, last week, the federation expressed Itself In favor of anti-strike legislation, all the offilcers signing the message. The state federation has a fund of $200,000 or more, all contributed as state dues by the various local memberships, and with such a fund and continuous support, the association will doubtless make a showing. FARM BANK LOANS. In the recent statement in this col umn that the farmers were heavy bor rowers at the Land BanK, tne commission of the figure M3" cut the tntnl nnm tr S33.000.000 when it Should have read $333,000,000, more than half of which was loaned on land in 1919. The fact, too. that private agencies, life insurance companies and various trust companies and savings banks, are constantly loaning large amounts on farm mortgages, must not be lost sight of. The tremendous debt secured by farm lands and city real estate Is almost beyond calculation. Farm mortgages are favored investments, because each stands for itself, apart from every other circumstance or consideration, not being a fraction of a mass security, as with stocks and bonds used as collateral. The farm Is worth the loan, nor is the farmer going to fail. FARMERS RULE ONTARIO. Taking a glance across the "border" we learn that the farmers have captured the Canadian government buildings at 'Ottawa, Ontario, and are to rule that rich province for the next few years. E. C. Drury, the new premier has lived on a farm all his life, has been a force in the agricultural progress of his community, and known as a man of wide observation and constructive thinking. The farmers captured 45 seats in the last campaign, and the lahorites having Joined with them, the farmers now control, or at least have a majority in the legislature. Mr. Drury announces that the farmers are against the red flag, and all that it signifies. This first trial of legislation without professional politicians in the cabinet will be watched with interst by farmers in this country who will hope for broad-guage, constructive lawmaking across the line.

STORAGE OF HAY. Hay comes very near being a precious product at ruling prices, and especially so In cities, and yet the country harvested big hay crops last summer. If your hay was baled or stored under doubtful conditions, examine It for mold. Hay baled from damp windrows soon heats and will sometimes become damaged to such an extent as

to be dangerous to feed. If you find your hay heating, repack it and leave two or three Inches of space for circu lation or air. Place the bottoni row on edge and the next layer crosswise, and so on up, with ample airspaces, - A good circulation of air in the first place would nave helped cure the hay. and Is later, an insurance against further mold or rot. The rainy season follow ing the hay harvest in the central west was responsible for much dam age in Beveral market districts, city buyers report. ' . Farm Sale Calendar Wednesday, January 14.
